This form is a legal document that shows your tenants the gas appliances and gas supply pipes are in good safe condition. Faulty or badly maintained gas appliances can lead to serious risk to health and life. Including risks of fires and carbon monoxide escape. With afterglow your tenants are in safe hands, our local gas safe registered engineers have over twenty years experience in maintaining gas appliances across Birmingham and Solihull.

Failing to have an up to date gas safety certificate, can put you at risk of prosecution up to £20,000 per property. And it also provides you with a legal document as proof you a fulfilled your responsibility as the landlord of the property.

Whats involved in a landlord gas safety inspection??

                                                                                        The gas engineer will need to make sure that all gas pipework, appliances, chimneys and flues are kept in safe condition. Check the gas appliances’ manufacturer guidelines to find out how often a service is recommended. If you haven’t got access to these, we’d recommend an annual service. We carry out a tightness test to make sure there’s no gas leaks.
